The '''Bone-Norman''' system was home to at least one habitable world and as of June [[3152]] was located in the [[Clan Hell's Horses]] Occupation Zone.<ref name=TRp72/>

__TOC__

==System Description==
The Bone-Norman system is located near the [[Erewhon]] and [[Renren]] systems.<ref name="HB:MPSp25"/>

==System History==
Planned as a potential breadbasket world, the Bone-Norman system was settled by the [[Rim Worlds Republic]] at some point during the [[Star League era]].<ref name="TtSBNp4">''Touring the Stars: Bone-Norman'', p. 4</ref>

===Planetary History===
Bone-Norman was a part of the [[Apollo Province]] of the Rim Worlds Republic and was conquered by the Lyran Commonwealth during the 2773-2775 [[Republic-Commonwealth War]].<ref name="HB:MPSp37">''Handbook: Major Periphery States'', p. 37: "The Republic-Commonwealth War"</ref> A fierce resistance was swiftly and harshly suppressed by the Commonwealth which earned the eternal enmity of the Bone-Norman population.<ref name="TtS:BNp5">''Touring the Stars: Bone-Norman'', p. 5</ref>

====Succession Wars Era====
The Draconis Combine sent a group of unmarked [['Mech]]s piloted by Azami Warriors<ref name=HKDCMp52>''House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)'', p. 53: "Bujitsu"</ref> across the border in August of [[2785]] to attack Bone-Norman. This had the desired effect of causing the Lyran forces to react by sending troops towards the Periphery to thwart a threat that did not exist. This allowed the [[DCMS]] to take the worlds of [[Trolloc Prime]] and [[Gram]].<ref name="HKp55"/> The raiders that struck Bone-Norman had swiftly wiped out the paramilitary militia in place on the world before rampaging through a number of cities including Red Stone, the planetary capital; some cities were plundered for supplies - both military and industrial - while others were set on fire.<ref name="FSWp21">''First Succession War'', p. 21: "The Commonwealth Incursions"</ref>

Among the troves contained in the [[Helm Memory Core]] was biomedical research related to the native organisms found on the Bone-Norman. Starting in [[3031]] a biotech industry flourished on the planet.<ref name="TtS:BNp5"/>

At the same time, the [[Grave Walkers]] mercenary regiment was using Bone-Norman as a training world. One corporation, BioHarvest, Inc., pursuaded the mercenaries into a formal protection contract. At the same time, the Grave Walkers were secretly testing a new advanced early-warning satellite system on behalf of the [[Federated Commonwealth]].<ref name="TtS:BNp5"/>

====Clan Invasion====
* See also [[Battle of Bone Norman (3050)]]
In March of [[3050]] Bone-Norman was targeted by Clan Jade Falcon forces as a part of their invasion of the Inner Sphere, [[Operation REVIVAL]]. The world was hit during the Jade Falcon's first wave of attacks. The 1st Regiment of the Grave Walkers was currently on world, and the FedCom's new early-warning satellite network notified the commander, [[Colonel]] Dennis Merwin, of the Jade Falcons' approach. The Clan's strategy was to decapitate resistance with a drop directly on the Red Stone Palace. Merwin ordered a fierce counterattack that devastated the Clan forces, but the Falcons were still able to break out and regroup. However, reinforcements were dispatched by the Jade Falcons, sealing the planet's fate. Bending to the reality of this mysterious invader's superior technology and skilled MechWarriors, Colonel Merwin warned the Bone-Norman planetary militia of the escalating situation, which sent them into hiding; this lead to years of guerrilla warfare on the planet.<ref name=JFS>''Jade Falcon Sourcebook'', p. 36: Bone-Norman - World under siege by Clan Jade Falcon and the outcome</ref><ref name="TtS:BNp6">''Touring the Stars: Bone-Norman'', p. 6</ref>

====The Jihad====
[[Clan Ice Hellion]] launched an invasion of the Clan Jade Falcon holdings in the Inner Sphere in mid-[[3071]], with Bone-Norman targeted in the early stages of the attack; however, by July the Ice Hellion invasion had bogged down, with Bone-Norman being one of the worlds still seeing heavy fighting between Ice Hellion and Jade Falcon forces.<ref name="JHS3076p16">''Jihad Hot Spots: 3076'', p. 16: "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref> The Ice Hellions invaded Bone-Norman using the [[200th Attack (Clan Ice Hellion)|200th Attack Cluster]], also known as the [[Lithe Kill Keshik]], commanded by [[saKhan]] [[Connor Rood]]. The Ice Hellions underestimated the resistance that the defending [[11th Provisional Garrison Cluster (Clan Jade Falcon)|Eleventh Provisional Garrison Cluster]] would offer to the Ice Hellion invasion. Operating under the command of [[Star Colonel]] Idris, the Eleventh knew that they wouldn't be able to defeat the 200th and would be heavily outnumbered; nevertheless, the Falcons were determined to tie down Connor Rood's forces for as long as possible, in the hopes that this would cause a delay to the overall Ice Hellion timetable for their invasion of the Jade Falcon Occupation Zone.<ref name="TtS:BNp7">''Touring the Stars: Bone-Norman'', p. 7: "Bone-Norman"</ref>

Idris called for a Trial for control of Bone-Norman, and deliberately designated the entirity of the Hapsburg continent as his [[Circle of Equals]]. This negated the Ice Hellion fast-strike tactics, by allowing the second-line Jade Falcon units to choose their own engagements, and to mount ambushes that didn't break ''[[zellbrigen]]'', allowing them to draw the Trial out without forfeiting. For two weeks, the Jade Falcon forces led the 200th around Bone-Norman in a series of frustrating engagements until Rood decided that he had to expose himself to draw the Jade Falcon forces out. The result was a battle on the Red Stone Plains where each force attempted to spring a trap on the other; Rood instructed a subordinate to begin a general melee, a tactic that allowed him to bring in an additional Trinary of troops that hadn't been a part of his original bid, only for Idris to bring a formation of ''[[Erinyes]]'' [[ProtoMech]]s to augment his own forces. The ProtoMechs nearly killed Rood, breaking through his cockpit and burning him badly shortly before the Hellions were able to declare the Trial a victory for themselves.<ref name="TtS:BNp7"/>

While the 200th did capture Bone-Norman, the world would remain an Ice Hellion holding for just a few weeks - the weak garrison force left behind after the 200th left were overwhelmed by the [[Falcon Guards]].<ref name="TtS:BNp7"/>

====IlClan Era====
After the Jade Falcon Occupation Zone became the anarchic [[The Hinterlands|Hinterlands]], Bone-Norman was taken over by an unknown faction who destroyed the Falcon paramilitary garrison and killed the civilian caste governing members. Landing in December [[3151]], elements of [[Clan Hell's Horses]] found evidence of the fighting and were attacked themselves, although the mountain base that served as the planet's command center was deserted by the time the Horses breached it.<ref name=TRp60>''Tamar Rising'', p. 60, "The Ground Trembles at the Horde's Approach"</ref>

==Geography==
Bone-Norman is known as a "desolate" and "haunting" world. It is dominated by a single large landmass, ''Hapsburg'', along with a smaller one, ''Renick'', and handful of islands. The geography is dictated by a challenging phenomenon: the exceptionally dense moon causes powerful tidal forces.<ref name="TtS:BNp4"/>

Hapsburg is characterized by a sharp mountain range, the ore-rich Rückens, along the west. Between the mountains and the ocean is a intertidal zone extending for hundreds of meters. The ocean hurls strong winds into the mountains and beyond. The interior is a vast hilly badlands, scoured by wind and eroded into howling channels, rumored to drive men insane. The badlands eventually give way to rolling plains of blue grass and forests of "werewillows" - native trees adapted to the high winds and containing high amounts of heavy metals that interfere with sensors.<ref name="TtS:BNp4"/>

Renick is a much smaller continent with a lower elevation but fertile land. Every five years the entire landmass is submerged by tidal flooding.<ref name="TtS:BNp4"/>

The planet's harsh conditions are made bearable with large engineering projects, from massive seawalls, flood management, to stilt-mounted buildings. There is, unfortunately, no engineering solution for the ceaseless winds. Perhaps due to the many hardships Bone-Normanites must endure, they have a centuries-spanning reputation as particularly surly and ill-tempered.<ref name="TtS:BNp5"/>
